On 160, 74, and even 40 those built in tuners are incapable of wide frequency changes. I have 4 SS rigs. One is 200W while the others are all 100W out. None can cover all of those three bands unaided. The big Palstar tuners take care of the tuning with the aid of an AIM.

This is why so many modern SS transceivers offer an antenna tuner built in.
